I think Donovan really butchered this line. Bafferts horse will not be higher then 7-2, and might be the favorite at post time. Patrick's horse should also be bet, at least he's reasonable at 4-1 on him. 8-1 on Baffert is crazy IMO.
I don't envy Eric Donovan's job and I think he does a very good job but he seems to have a great deal of difficulty assessing shippers and their respective performances away from NY.

I like him and he does a great job, but this line is wrong. You said it yourself. As for your other post with liking Dutrow in here, I dont. If Baffert losses, I think he at least has enough speed to set it up for the Biancone. The 4th place finisher of Tiny Woods maiden race came back to win Saturday, and Sadler is REALLY HIGH on the second place finisher.

What on earth does any morning line have to do with anything? Its one person's prediction of how the public bets. Does it really matter, and why are you even looking at it? Would you bet a horse because it is going off at 6/1 and it was 15/1 on the ML?
